PMC X-TAC ammunition in 5.56x45 NATO offers a mil-spec, affordable round for high-volume AR-15 shooters. Made to the same specifications as US military M193 ball ammo, these rounds are known for their accuracy, reliability, and cleanliness.

Each round in the 20-round box delivers a standard 55-grain projectile at about 3,270 feet per second. The boxer-primed brass cases are reloadable and sealed at the primer and case neck for maximum shelf life.

Note that this is 5.56 NATO ammunition, and may not be safe to fire in firearms chambered in .223 Remington. Check with your manufacturer if in doubt.

The PMC brand belongs to the Poongsan Corporation, a South Korean munitions company founded in 1968. A major supplier of ammunition to the South Korean military, Poongsan meets exacting standards for performance and reliability. The company achieves consistency in its ammunition through vertical integration, producing its own ammunition components and exercising quality control through the entire supply chain.

Thanks to excess production capacity, Poongsan makes significant quantities of mil-spec ammo available to American shooters under the PMC brand. PMC rifle and pistol ammunition has gained immense popularity in the US due to its strong performance and reasonable price point.

Fast shipping, usually 2-3 day delivery and the prices are great. Remember
The last gun scare and talk of bans and registry and confiscations? Remember what it did to all firearms and related products to run your guns with? Then like the saying goes, " buy it cheap and stack it deep!" also have ordered thousand rd. cases of the 62. Gr. green tip for my SIG 516. It like the heavier weight due to it's 1 in 7 twist. The green tip shoots great thru it also with "ZERO" problems. Buy with confidence from Bulk Ammo!!!! (Posted on 6/30/14)

EXCELLENT AMMOReview by RICK

Ammo Performance

I've probably made at least 20 orders from BulkAmmo.com for various types of ammo. Each time the result is the same. I order on Monday before 2 p.m. and my order arrives on Wednesday. I've used both Federal and PMC and have sent well over a couple of thousand rounds down range. The PMC ammo does look cleaner and more pleasing to the eye then the Federal but I've never had any problems with either manufacturer. Of course I do keep all my weapons cleaned and treated with FrogLube after each use. Bottom line here is I salute BulkAmmo.com and Steve for providing excellent customer service and doing their best to keep ammo in stock and prices as low as possible. Please support the NRA and our second amendment rights! (Posted on 10/24/13)

From start to finish my order was placed, processed, and received with in a few days. The package was exactly as expected in a tighly sealed and packaged box. The ammunition was flawless in performance. Several hundred rounds were fired over the course of a range day as well as to center in a new scope. Groups of one and two inches at 50 and 100 yards. I would highly recommend this ammo and Bulkammo.com! (Posted on 5/20/13)

I have yet to shoot this ammo, so I cannot comment on ammunition performance. I can however comment on the service that I received. They shipped what they said they had on hand. They shipped it when they said they would. It arrived without incident. They did what they said they would do. I can't ask for more than that. I will buy from BulkAmmo.com again.

I will follow-up on the PMC 5.56 ammo after I have shot it. (Posted on 5/7/13)

These are very accurate rounds, I used these to sight in a Leupold on an LMT. If you need good quality ammo at today's prices you can't go wrong with PMC. (Posted on 4/10/13)

Fantastic AmmoReview by Brian

This is some fantastic 5.56!
It looks so much better then its Federal XM193 counterpart.
The brass is spotless & polished to a mirror finish, not a single dented brass & its a plus that the primers are sealed. This ammo is beautiful compared to the dented,tarnished & dirty looking Federal XM193.
The Federal XM193 is still a great shooting cartridge by all means but the PMC XP193 is much cleaner looking & the accuracy is spot on with its Federal brother.

BulkAmmo is fantastic as usual!
Shipping is unbelievably fast and the product is great.
Little pricey but considering there's a ammunition shortage at the moment, I can't complain at all!
BulkAmmo is the one-stop-shop for my ammo needs :) (Posted on 1/30/13)
